Details about Black Myth: Wukong sequel Black Myth: Zhong Kui have been light on the ground since its reveal at Gamescom 2025, but the devs at Game Science just revealed six minutes of in-engine footage that fans are taking as evidence that "they are cooking" – literally.
Ahead of Chinese New Year later this month, Game Science has shared the footage in celebration of the Year of the Horse. A disclaimer right at the end clarifies that "this content is non-canon and unrelated to the main storyline," so as far as Black Myth: Zhong Kui goes, this is more of a flex of how impressive its cutscenes could look in the final product rather than a hint of what's to come in the narrative.
Phantom Blade Zero is my most-anticipated action RPG, and looks like the biggest Chinese game since Black Myth: Wukong

Anyway, as Game Science says, the video doesn't really tie to the game at all, but it's managed to hype fans up regardless. "Ah I see. Basically they are saying they are cooking," one popular comment reads, while many others share the same sentiment.
"Game Science is confident enough to flex because they can. You cannot say that about a lot of devs. They are definitely cooking the game!" writes another, while a fan on ResetEra comments: "Let them cook and they did!"
There's still no release window for Black Myth: Zhong Kui, so it's not clear how long we could be waiting for the sequel – at Gamescom, it was noted that even the director has "absolutely no idea" when it's coming out. We'll just have to watch this space.
